Now seems like a good time to remind everyone how ugly P3P's characters were:
I had to restructure my entire party. I think it took me something like five hours? Completely insane.
Then it turned out that my disc was scratched and the only affected data was the ending cutscene. HILARIOUS.
I had no problems with Kumbhanda at all, personally.

Ha ha! Thank you!!
Yeah! I think as I get more proficient with the gameplay and story, I will post more and more; still learning and have much to learn! By the time Persona 5 is out, I should be a familiar face in these threads. ^_^
They're called dakimakura and they're very normal.

It's not like it's technically unfeasible for it to happen :lol. 3DS is certainly capable of it(despite the specs being dog shit).
Wasn't
the Plume of Desk said to be the thing that helped the maidens keep their personality in the first place? If so, what would happen if you basically put one into a human body? Which win quote are you referring to though?
Now seems like a good time to remind everyone how ugly P3P's characters were:
They must really have had issues with RAM. Which is weird considering how far games like KH: Birth By Sleep managed to push the system. (Though many of those had quite the loading times without Data install.)
Speaking of BBS I had that happen after that game's optional Superboss.
The quality of them seems really low to me, though. The actual presentation of the battles looks really bad, in my opinion.
It all comes down to what the teams are capable of. The BBS team will have been larger, higher paid, and better on technical level than Atlus' team.

PSP had way more graphically capable games, like Final Fantasy Type Zero, and God of War Ghost of Sparta
Reminds me of the time I got up to the final boss in Thousand Year Door and then my save corrupted. ;_;
What's a maiden?
And the win quote I'm referring to is the one I mentioned: Sho vs. SHO (there's only one):
Sho vs. SHO:
The Mechanical Maidens, I.E. Aigis/Labrys?
Huh, don't think I've ever heard that term for the anti-Shadow weapons before. Interesting.

I have always wondered why P3/P4 didn't go for a Nocturne/DDS esque art style, budget issue maybe?
Low or not, still better than P4/3's.
It's a budget title, to be sure. The 3DS isn't a graphical powerhouse by any means, but it can do some neat stuff when it wants to.
This is Atlus being cheap-ass Atlus here. Are we really having a discussion of graphics in a persona thread? We're like, the last people to care about this.

I call them Iron Maidens
Ikutsuki calls them that in the very first scene Aigis appears, lol...
Very true.
I would have completely lost my shit.(Okay I didn't like TTYD that much the first time but that would still blow.)
Even the game admits that they're robo-waifus
I think so. They went with the chibi-esque style because they didn't think they'd have the time/money to pull off a more full-featured look.

Assuming Atlus aren't pants on head retarded, I think P5's engine will be "futureproof" or I think the engine/assets will be scalable and ready for PS4, WiiU, 4DS and Vita. I think because of this, P5 will a look a lot better than people are expecting.
Are people not expecting much? Catherine looks great and I expect P5 to look even better than that.

I think the P3/P4 team they used a completely different engine compared to the SMT games on the PS2. With some elements of the nocturne engine to some degree with the persona's 3d models.

Why didn't they do it for P4 then? I'd be surprised if DDS had a higher budget than persona 4.

doubt it
I always figured it was a stylistic choice made to differentiate Persona from other SMT games while also trying to appeal to a wider audience.
Keep in mind that P4 came out very late in the PS2's life span. It was best if they could squeeze out every dollar they could while the PS2 install base was still around.(I think the PS3 already had a price cut or two by then.)
I assumed that at the time Atlus considered SMT to be the "mainline" series and DDS was the attempt to get fans of other JRPG's into the fold. P3 was more of a low budget experiment that they weren't expecting would be the big hit. P4 was turned around relatively quickly to strike while that Persona iron was hot.
Same here.
Really? I must have totally forgotten about that.

Gal Gun: The RPGening!
Matador had Fiend
It's also a Tsuchiya track, I think, or Tasaki. I'll have to look that up.
rip
I get now why you always claim that Sophia bullies you, Smed.
Fiend is by far my favorite from the Nocturne soundtrack.
PK/Dantis OTP confirmed.
Just learned that P5 will use a new engine and not Catherine's. I assumed it would be the latter.
Also this:
"Furthermore, Persona 5 will use life-sized character models in a change from previous Persona games to increase the sense of reality that the player is supposed to perceive."

That's exactly what I was thinking.

I've been looking through concept art for P3.
I like this one of Yukari with longer hair.
Mitsuru certainly had many hair styles before finalization.

Now those are some mighty bangs. I still like the short-haired Mitsuru design someone (pan?) posted a while ago.

That is pretty much Female MC, and an early Female MC design in original P3 is pretty much Yukari.
Dammit all I won't even get to play this game until APRIL. Want it noooooow. Bad enough I cut off all of my P4 supply while I'm marathoning FMP.
You most likely won't be able to play that game in April either.
That's P4A2, not P4A.
At least you got to play SMT IV.

This one?
lol, I can't imagine her without luscious red locks.
Yeah, that one. It's not a better design for Mitsuru, but I like the design itself.

That one of Mitsuru on the far right is 2fabulous4me
Fair enough. Even though I'm not a huge fan of it, SMT4 is still a pretty solid game.

I still want you to play SMT Strange Journey or SMT Nocturne if you think SMTIV is hard cuz that game was actually a little disappointingly easy for me lol
